365 Day Quilt Along

 This was a quilt along (last year?) .... quilting a block a day for a full year, ending May 2020.  It was provided by Natalia Bonner of Piece and Quilt.com.  When you do all the blocks, it made 7 quilts.  I did them all !  I won this panel from Piece and Quilt.  I made most of my panels and enlarged them with borders.  I stitched this panel last year and set it aside waiting for quilting inspiration for the final border , as it is 10 inches wide.

So now it is finished.  I wanted to keep the design in the border to coincide with the styles in the blocks, which were all done with rulers, so  I kept to straight lines for the border.  I tried to keep it suitable for a male.  I gift most of my quilts, since I make so many  and it's difficult to make them male friendly.  The border fabric is same as the backing, which was a wide back fabric.  The quilt measures 65 x 75 with a double layer of cotton batting.



Natalia Bonner is having a new quilting along, beginning  September 9th.  It is called 9 Patchalong 2.0.  It is an adorable quilt and will be so fun to quilt up.  If you want to join in the fun,  check it out   HERE. .

In the meantime, I'm joining these linky parties this week.  Be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.
